follow us on a jb day trip! 🛼✨

after 2 years of not visiting jb….my friends & i decided to head in on a random thursday! 😛 since it was quite impromptu decision, we didn’t manage to snag train tix. but it took us awhile to board the bus from kranji…😩 luckily there wasn’t any Q but we also entered via the e-gate, so everything was very seamless & smooooth~

we reached jb sentral around 10+am & our 1st stop is 📍 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗥𝗘𝗣𝗟𝗔𝗖𝗘𝗠𝗘𝗡𝗧—𝗟𝗢𝗗𝗚𝗘 & 𝗞𝗜𝗧𝗖𝗛𝗘𝗡 since it’s near custom & we’re headed further in for the rest of the trip! i convinced my friends to come here for bfast as i reallyyyy missed the pesto pasta 🍝 here 𝐈𝐓’𝐒 𝐒𝐎 𝐂𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐌𝐘 & 𝐖𝐎𝐑𝐓𝐇 𝐈𝐓 🤑

2nd stop 📍 𝗝𝗔𝗟𝗔𝗡 𝗝𝗔𝗟𝗔𝗡 𝗝𝗔𝗣𝗔𝗡, it’s our first time here & we walked around the whole store but didn’t manage to buy anything we like unfortunately

3rd stop 📍 𝗔𝗘𝗢𝗡 𝗠𝗔𝗟𝗟 𝗧𝗘𝗕𝗥𝗔𝗨 𝗖𝗜𝗧𝗬, we spend ~2H here as we walked around & window shopped q a bit too hehe 🛍️

4th stop 📍 𝗛𝗜𝗚𝗛 𝗦𝗖𝗛𝗢𝗢𝗟 𝗞𝗢𝗣𝗜𝗧𝗜𝗔𝗠, seems like a new store as i don’t recall it being the last time i was here LOL food was pretty good especially the toast! 🍞 this was just a light snack before our super late lunch/early dinz as we were quite early before their opening

5th stop 📍 𝗕𝗔𝗕𝗔𝗡𝗔𝗡𝗔, this was a pleasant surprise as it’s such a cute store from the stretch of food stores. there was quite a crowd inside & the vibes were immaculate! but the products were obviously brought in haha but still it’s still q cheap! ✨

6th stop 📍 𝗗𝗔𝗜 𝗧𝗔𝗢 𝗟𝗔𝗟𝗔 𝗣𝗢𝗧 大头啦啦煲, our super late lunch/early dinz LOL we went back about 515pm & it was 𝐒𝐎 𝐂𝐑𝐎𝐖𝐃𝐄𝐃 𝐀𝐋𝐑𝐃 luckily we got a table! but afterwards there was definitely a Q

🎤 we ended the night w KTV along the stretch, as we weren’t sure where to go & we are super fullllllll. we sang for 3H & it was 28RM/pax (iirc) 𝐒𝐎 𝐖𝐎𝐑𝐓𝐇!?!? it was my 1st time singing in jb too HAHA

2024/6/21 Edited to

... Read moreJohor Bahru (JB) is a vibrant destination brimming with incredible food, shopping, and activities just a bus ride away from Singapore. Whether you're a local or visiting for the first time, planning a perfect day in JB is essential to make the most of your trip. The town offers a great blend of traditional and modern eateries—don’t miss trying local specialties like 'Nasi Lemak' or 'Roti Jala' for an authentic experience. Aside from restaurants, JB is home to eclectic cafes that cater to coffee enthusiasts and those looking for a relaxing atmosphere. Shopping is abundant here with malls like AEON and Paradigm Mall, where you can find everything from local brands to international labels. Don't forget to explore the bustling markets for a taste of local culture and souvenirs. For adventure seekers, consider visiting Legoland Malaysia or offering a family-friendly experience. To unwind, sing your heart out at a local KTV spot just like we did! End your JB journey with memories of laughter and fun. Remember to try and plan your trip on weekdays to avoid the weekend crowd, allowing for a smoother travel experience.
